Challenges Faced by SDSHC

The South Dakota Soil Health Coalition (SDSHC) sought to transform how agricultural professionals connect, collaborate, and learn. However, they faced several challenges:

  • Limited Reach: Outreach events were constrained by geography and budgets, restricting access to valuable educational media like videos, presentations, and documents.
  • Fragmented Interaction: Producers lacked an efficient way to collaborate, share insights, and exchange solutions in real time.
  • Mentorship Gaps: Connecting with mentors was time-consuming, making it difficult for producers to get timely, personalized advice.
  • Event Management Issues: Coordinating workshops and seminars was labor-intensive and costly, limiting year-round engagement opportunities.
  • Delayed Updates: Real-time notifications for posts, comments, and events were unavailable, impacting timely communication.
  • Content Moderation Needs: A reliable system was required to ensure only relevant, meaningful content was shared on the platform.

SDSHC partnered with Blue Whale Apps to tackle these challenges and develop a solution that revolutionized their community engagement, education delivery, and collaboration efforts.
